Chess Quotes

You sit at the board and suddenly your heart leaps. Your hand trembles to pick up the piece and move it. But what chess teaches you is that you must sit there calmly and think about whether it’s really a good idea and whether there are other, better ideas Picture Quote #1

If the media didn’t know I played chess, there’d be no angle on me at all Picture Quote #1

In boxing you create a strategy to beat each new opponent, it’s just like chess Picture Quote #1

Life is not always like chess. Just because you have the king surrounded, don’t think he is not capable of hurting you Picture Quote #1

Far be it from me to force anyone into either chess or dressage, but if you choose to do so yourself, in my opinion there is only one way: follow the rules Picture Quote #1

Avoid the crowd. Do your own thinking independently. Be the chess player, not the chess piece Picture Quote #1

I am not some sort of freak. I might be very good at chess but I’m just a normal person Picture Quote #1

Chess teaches you to control the initial excitement you feel when you see something that looks good and it trains you to think objectively when you’re in trouble Picture Quote #1

Look at a football field. It looks like a big movie screen. This is theatre. Football combines the strategy of chess. It’s part ballet. It’s part battleground, part playground. We clarify, amplify and glorify the game with our footage, the narration and that music, and in the end create an inspirational piece of footage Picture Quote #1

We want more women players to take up chess. There are few participants at the national level and hope it will grow Picture Quote #1

Chess as a sport requires a lot of mental stamina, and this is what that makes it different from a physical sport. Chess players have a unique ability of taking in a lot of information and remembering relevant bits. So, memory and mental stamina are the key attributes Picture Quote #1

Chess has given me a lot more than I could ask for. I have been able to feel special, travel the world and do what I truly enjoy. Moreover, chess players love being their own boss and hate having to wake up early! Picture Quote #1

If you have a strong opponent, a competition is stimulating. I am generally most open to ideas when I have had a bad result. In chess, too, players specialise. This specialty then becomes an entry barrier Picture Quote #1

It’s important, according to me, to train in small doses so as to not lose the joy of playing chess. I personally think too many coaching and training classes may take away a child’s interest in the game itself. The essential thing to do is practise often and, in case of a doubt, to consult a trainer Picture Quote #1

You bring to chess facets of your personality and what you are. I have interests other than chess, like music and world and current affairs. I also have many friends around the world with whom I like to keep in touch Picture Quote #1

I feel as if I were a piece in a game of chess, when my opponent says of it: That piece cannot be moved Picture Quote #1

Life is like a game of chess... there are many moves possible, but each move determines your next move... where you wind up is the sum total of all your past moves... but first you have to make some kind of move Picture Quote #1

The physicist is like someone who’s watching people playing chess and, after watching a few games, he may have worked out what the moves in the game are. But understanding the rules is just a trivial preliminary on the long route from being a novice to being a grand master. So even if we understand all the laws of physics, then exploring their consequences in the everyday world where complex structures can exist is a far more daunting task, and that’s an inexhaustible one I’m sure Picture Quote #1

Endings of one rook and pawns are about the most common sort of endings arising on the chess board. Yet though they do occur so often, few have mastered them thoroughly. They are often of a very difficult nature, and sometimes while apparently very simple they are in reality extremely intricate Picture Quote #1

When you sit down to play a game you should think only about the position, but not about the opponent. Whether chess is regarded as a science, or an art, or a sport, all the same psychology bears no relation to it and only stands in the way of real chess Picture Quote #1

Chess can never reach its height by following in the path of science... Let us, therefore, make a new effort and with the help of our imagination turn the struggle of technique into a battle of ideas Picture Quote #1

An hour’s history of two minds is well told in a game of chess Picture Quote #1

During the course of many years I have observed that a great number of doctors, lawyers, and important businessmen make a habit of visiting a chess club during the late afternoon or evening to relax and find relief from the preoccupations of their work Picture Quote #1

Capablanca was snatched too early from the chess world. With his death we have lost a great chess genius, the like of whom we will never see again Picture Quote #1

Chess is a game sufficiently rich in meaning that it is easily capable of containing elements of both tragedy and comedy Picture Quote #1

Chess is like a language, the top players are very fluent at it. Talent can be developed scientifically but you have to find first what you are good at Picture Quote #1

The laws of chess do not permit a free choice: you have to move whether you like it or not Picture Quote #1

I have always had a slight feeling of pity for man who has no knowledge of chess Picture Quote #1

Chess is a miniature version of life. To be successful, you need to be disciplined, assess resources, consider responsible choices and adjust when circumstances change Picture Quote #1

I consider chess an art, and accept all those responsibilities which art places upon its devotees Picture Quote #1
